New York Rep. Elise Stefanik has accepted President-elect Donald Trump’s offer to be his enforcer as United Nations ambassador, The Post can reveal.

The 40-year-old upstate Republican, who helped force out two Ivy League presidents with her sharp questioning on campus antisemitism, will the lead Trump’s “America first” and pro-Israel message in Turtle Bay.

“I am honored to nominate Chairwoman Elise Stefanik to serve in my Cabinet as U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations. Elise is an incredibly strong, tough, and smart America First fighter,” Trump, 78, said in a statement to The Post Sunday night.

Heck, nominate me for U.N. Ambassador. The place is messed up and I could neither help nor hurt it. I’d vote “No” on everything from the floor and “Veto” everything in the security council.

I’d do just fine.

Jeff Sessions derived trauma

Don’t forget that seat went Democrat, and may still be unless that was the Seat Tuberville took.

Just a suggestion: Don’t run Roy Moore for the vacant seat.

Just imagine that the cheat machine in NY only has to concentrate on a single race. A race that may determine who controls congress. If anyone thinks an unheard of republican can win that race then they are delusional. George Santos anyone?

There is another matter as well. Stefanik just ran a race. People voted for her with no indication that she would not fulfill her duty. Her actions are selfish and a betrayal to her district.

Not a bright idea. If I had voted for her I would be ticked off.

Your second point might be what is going on here. Haley’s primary credential is her stint as UN ambassador. Stefanik will get that credential now, setting her up for a Senate run or a nomination to be VP or even POTUS.

The UN has time and again demonstrated that it is a terrorist organization. Wherever its troops go they rape 7 - 12 yr olds. Get the U.S. out of this demonic organization - defund it, tear the building down in NYC and salt the earth where it stood.

Agreed.

I mean I really don’t care that much who we send to the UN. It’s a worthless organization full of snakes and enemies.

Find some pit bull who can follow instructions and be done with it.

But we don’t need her losing her House seat and having to have a special election to replace her.

I wish GOP Presidents did not pull appointees from the ranks of sitting GOP federal representatives. There are other good alternatives every time they do it.

Is there a rule that she has to resign her House seat to serve as US ambassador? Can she hold both positions?

I agree with what you said. I think he needs to wait and see how big of a majority they have before pulling someone out of Congress.

Has anyone asked her? Maybe she would enjoy such a posting? Ultimately I wish her the best of luck whatever she decides.
